Difference btwn Kantha & Regular Rudraksha Mala

[Guest guest]

Namaste Michael, regular rudraksha malas are for counting mantras

(Mantra Japa), meditation or for wearing. Kantha Malas are for

wearing when one is performing spiritual rituals, meditating and also

for counting mantras if one wishes. Pls scroll below for further

Kanthas & Their Importance

--------------------------

 

Prajapati (Brahma) said in Nirnayasindhu: A rosary of 32 beads

renders moksa (spiritual enlightenment). While wearing a rosary of

thirty two beads if a man does rituals, he gets many folds more

benefits.

 

Vopadeva states in Padartha-Darsa that one who wears thirty two

Rudrakshas in neck, forty on forehead, six in each ears, twelve in

each wrists, sixteen in each arms, four in each eyes, one hundred

eight over the chest, himself becomes Neelakantha (Lord Shiva).

 

Kanthas are always 32+1 beads. They are worn for spiritual purposes.
